Shortly after the release of Grand Prix Legends the sim racing community looked forward to another title that promised to offer a similar insight into historic racing. Trans-Am Racing ’68-’72 ultimately never released, a victim of a publishers shady dealings, but as a part of my research I uncovered a VHS of a never-released trailer for the game. Watch the trailer and read about what sim racing missed out on.
Charlotte Motor Speedway, formerly Lowe’s Motor Speedway, is a motorsports complex built in 1959 by Bruton Smith located in Concord, North Carolina, United States.
First seen in sim racing with NASCAR Racing (1994).

Both NASCAR Racing 2003 Season and NR2002 require a PowerPC system from around the time of their release, but will both run fine on an Intel CPU Mac running a version of Mac OS with built-in Rosetta emulator such as Mac OS X Snow Leopard. You cannot install Snow Leopard on a very recent machine though and Apple have removed Rosetta from later versions of the OS, so unless you use virtualization software such as Parallels it’s basically impossible to run NR2003 on a recent system without Windows.
